The German coach Matthias Jaissle, the head coach of the Saudi Al-Ahli team, made a quick decision following the unexpected loss to Al-Qadisiyah in the Saudi Roshn League competition.

Yaisleh's decision to grant the team players a day off from training came as an attempt to catch their breath after the painful defeat they suffered, despite leading by two goals in the first half.

Al-Ahli fell 3-2 to Al-Qadsia in the 26th round, losing valuable points at a crucial stage in the race for the league title this season.

According to Saudi press reports, Al-Ahli players will return to training on Sunday to begin preparations for the anticipated match against Al-Hilal Saudi.

The two teams are expected to meet in a strong match in the semi-finals of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques Cup, a clash eagerly anticipated by Saudi football fans.

The team's schedule during the upcoming break has not yet been determined, as details are expected to be announced after the match with Al Hilal.

Al Ahly occupies the second place in the league standings with 62 points after 26 rounds, remaining in contention for the title.

The match between Al-Ahli and Al-Hilal is scheduled to take place on Wednesday, March 18, at the Al-Inma Stadium in King Abdullah Sports City in Jeddah, in an eagerly anticipated football showdown.
